„Images of Global Peace makes use of the multiple benefits of microfiche, which include paper economy, postage economy, and being an inexpensive way of making reproductions of images widely available. It has the disadvantage of requiring a special device to look at it; but it’s not as if most public libraries don’t have a microfiche reader available to the public.” Retrofuturism No. 14, January 1991, p. 1662

Bibliography: Shimamoto, Shozo: Three Overtures to Networking, in: Eternal Network. A Mail Art Anthology, University of Calgary Press, Calgary, 1995, pp. 130–135. (Ed. by Chuck Welch)
„Banks 'ran' from London to Helsinki with Cohen, Shimamoto and Handa. Cohen and Shimamoto are particularly energetic tourists, Shimamoto being a sometime active member of the 1950s Gutai movement who having shaved his head uses it as a canvas for networker's creativity whether live in his Tourism or in networked photocopy 'add-ons'.19 The Run was accompanied by the work, of the seventy networkers that they met along the way, through the decorating of both Shimamoto's head and the van in which the Japanese travelled. The 8,000 km journey began symbolically on August the 6th (Hiroshima Day) and ended on September 5th., having begun in London and travelled through Paris August 8th; Kortrijk August 14th; Brussels August 15th; Cologne August 17th; Frankfurt August 18th; Kleinassen August 19th; Minden August 20th; Berlin August 21st; Wroclaw August 25th; Warsaw August 27th; Leningrad August 30th; Helsinki August 31st; Forsa September 2nd; Lapland September 3rd; Helsinki September 5th; finishing in Osaka September 6th. 1990.” Source
